The TG-SA ITZO TFT comprises a substrate, a buffer layer, an ITZO thin film, a gate dielectric layer, a conductive thin film, a passivation layer, gate, source and drain contact electrodes. The transistor has a TG-SA structure, which can address the issues of larger parasitic capacitance and weaker device scalability in a traditional bottom-gate counterpart. When depositing the gate dielectric layer and the passivation layer, different gas sources and annealing conditions are used, such that the ITZO thin film region contacted with and covered by the gate dielectric layer shows a high-resistivity state, the ITZO thin film region contacted with and covered by the passivation layer shows a low-resistivity state, thereby forming a high-resistivity channel region and low-resistivity conductive source and drain regions, and addressing the thermal instability issue.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of semiconductors, and more particularly, to a top-gate self-aligned (TGSA) indium-tin-zinc oxide (ITZO) thin-film transistor (TFT) and manufacturing method thereof.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Explanation of terms

Precursor: refers to a precursor or a raw material for synthesizing some substance.

With the development of next-generation active-matrix organic-light-emitting-diode (AMOLED) display technology, metal oxide thin-film transistor (TFTs) have attracted great attention and been intensively studied, wherein bottom-gate ITZOTFTs are one of the most representative example. However, the bottom-gate devices suffer from large parasitic capacitance and weak device scalability, thus being unfriendly to high-resolution displays and system-on-panel (SOP) technology. So far, some of research groups have developed a type of top-gate self-aligned (TG-SA) TFTs with smaller parasitic capacitance and stronger device scalability. However, their highly conductive source and drain regions are often formed via hydrogen (J. Park et. al, Appl. Phys. Lett., 93, 053501, 2008) or argon (B. Du Ahn et.al, Appl. Phys. Lett., 93, 203506, 2008) plasma treatment, where doped ions are able to easily diffuse from source and drain regions to channels, resulting in the over conductive channels and the devices without switching behavior. Particularly, such diffusion can be accelerated by the following thermal treatments. Therefore, these TFTs with the plasma-treated source and drain regions often show poor thermal stability. Moreover, the formation of highly conductive source and drain regions by doping ions involves additional process steps, which increase manufacturing cost.
